GENEVA - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 600. Geneva goes by the nickname Neva and is the more assertive between her and her sister Ripley. It appears she feels the need to keep her sister safe so she is a bit standoffish of new dogs at first, but once she knows they are not a threat she settles in nicely. She’s okay with cats, but the older she gets, she’s becoming a bit of a chaser. LOVES to cuddle and be on your lap. Loves blankets and pillows, anything soft and she knows she is supposed to lay on it. She’s a champ on car rides … absolutely loves them. She is a barker when she wants attention, keeps her kennel clean, and LOVES soft things to play on and children and humans to cuddle and love. She thrives with clear boundaries and expectations, and once she knows the rules, she follows them like a pro. But don’t be surprised if she gives you a little test run—she loves to see what she can get away with when meeting new people. With consistency and a bit of humor, she’ll settle right in and keep you smiling every step of the way. Click here and click here to see how smart I am! Geneva is from a local reservation.
